Ok I have heard that there are plenty of hack packs out there that work. I am wondering if we will be able to add wings and/or tails to our PCs that would have them anyway? For RP reasons it would be insane not to have them. It completely defeats the purpose, and you can have players argue with you about the validity of what you are.
I would like to see Tieflings with tails and Red Dragon Disciples with wings.
*Curses Atari and Bioware with a thousand others for not doing their job*

I dont think this pack will be implemented any time soon. With the current update coming and other things being sorted out, stuff like this is low on the priority list. -Ice

I know the instance your refering to, and I know I say dont mention specific instances on the forum but it was probably my char so i dont see any harm . You didnt RP she had visible scales, so neither did I and my barbarian has never seen anyone of actual dragon blood so he belives you were useing magic, for he has seen wizards use a spell very similar. Other players take their cues from you, we cant look at your character sheet, so its up to you as a player to tell us about your character. Food for thought, if you decide you want wings (if they ever become avaiable) understand they comewith an unwritten disclosier, if you have say a tail or red dragon wings be ready for hostility probably very violent hostility at that, as you would be thrown into the high threat level assesment pile right next to drow. Not to mention alot of people would hunt you down for study,and for your scales. Not saying its bad rp or anything, its just that wings do have some major implications.

When a favored soul reaches the last levels in the class they are supposed to get wings too. I dis-remember what level although I think it is 20th. I would think that an obviously good and honorable priest of say, Torm, wouldn't be instantly hunted just because he has a pair of wings. As for the question of adding such things, well, I would prefer to see something the whole server can use, rather than just a player or three. *jasmine looks wistful* I would really like to earn my wings.

Tiefling tails wouldn't put them any lower on the social scale then they are now. As for wings I would have to say I dont agree really since there is no actual race that has wings as a PC in NWN2 (yes I know Favoured Souls and Dragon Disciples 'should' get them by Canon D&D rules). I think the inclusion of winged characters will bring up too many of the 'Hey, how come I dont have a flight speed or a combat flight action?' questions later on when everyone gets bored of rolling a RDD just for a pair of flappers! *edit* I know old stereotypes and 'normal' characters can be boring but wouldn't it make a change to see a few normal people in the realms? Think of how neat it would be if there were a couple of -trader- PCs lining the roads to sell you potions so you dont have to come back to town so often?! Time to take some appraise I think

Bioware got by the flight speed problem quite easily with it's only winged joinable NPC. They just made the character a victim of circumstance and removed her wings forcefully. Problem solved.

OBE didnt want to both with flying since it would actually make them work to solve the X, Y , Z axis. They also said adding in horses is to difficult and that is couldnt be done, yet Sacred did it back in 2002 (shortly after NWN1) came out. Hmm.. let me think here.. OBE is just lazy and really cant do their jobs. -Ice

I blame the blind monks from the Himalays who tests their updates. Its all a conspiracy to make OBE sound evil and dumb.
